Intermediate Bike Repair Workshops The classes are taught by experienced mechanics and provide an intimate, focused, learning environment. The number of participants is limited to 6 per class. The class outline is structured and focused to cover as much as possible in a relatively short amount of time. As a beginner to bike repair, we expect you will learn a lot and come away feeling much more comfortable with the workings of your machine. It is also an ideal refresher for someone who has taken a class in the past, or has some limited, but spotty experience. You will almost certainly learn some new techniques and tricks. Intermediate Workshops 1 and 2 do not have to be taken together or in order. Please bring your bike if possible. Price: $30 + g.s.t.= $31.50 | ||

Please join other Community Bicycle Network members in our Strategic Planning Workshop, November 29! This is open to all CBN members and people interested in the strategic direction of CBN. CBN has been operating a bike shop for 2 years. We have also had successful programs of bike mechanics workshops, bike give-aways and tool rental drop-ins. How can CBN do things differently or better to achieve our mission? We will be looking at different elements of CBN: store management; our mission to marginalized individuals; connections to other organizations; our public role; and volunteer development. Refreshments and snacks available. Please call Herb at 416-912-6130 or email to RSVP or inquire. CBN's mission, in short, is to promote the health through cycling; provide education in bike maintenance and usage; preserve the environment through recycling used bikes; and to educate the public through seminars on sustainable transportation. | ||
